Pros

I worked as a contractor, so my experiences are from that perspective. I found everyone I worked with to be pleasant and reasonable. It is a very collaborative environment based on team work. I found it refreshing to be working within a group of intelligent professionals.

Cons

There is an incredible amount of Capital One acronyms. Learning the 'language' is a challenge, especially for contractors. Employees go through training classes to bring them up to speed, but as a contractor you're on your own. Because it is a collaborative environment, it is the land of cubbies and open work areas; so if you need your own space you might not be happy.

Pros

Good work life balance. Great benefits (dental, medical, other perks). Very tech forward for a financial institution

Cons

Culture could be better. For example, there could be a better effort to foster camaraderie outside of work hours

Pros

Environment was good, food was decent, free food at my location (dont know if it was allowed but it was good)

Cons

The rittenhouse location is managed by a tyrant, he is an incredibly toxic man and upper management make it the most unbearable place to work. Andy will ask you to come in on days you're not scheduled, and then hold it over your head if you don't. Talks about employees behind their backs constantly. No respect enforced employees talked about each other all the time and there was even name calling in meetings, management did nothing. Worst place I've ever worked in my life frankly and affected my mental health in the worst way. Glad to be out out of there. The place itself has potential but the management at the Rittenhouse branch and above them is absolutely terrible in every regard.
